The Local Government Act 2009 (LGA) and Local Government Regulation 2012 (LGR) combine to prescribe a default procurement framework for councils to use when procuring contractors. Unfortunately for some councils, this framework is quite rigid and does not take into account a given council’s size, procurement capability, the surrounding industries or the complexity of the contract in question. Luckily, there is another way. Implementing a Strategic Contracting framework can help councils tailor their procurement processes to their specific capabilities and risk profiles, allowing them to conduct much more efficient procurements which better fit their needs. This article details the pros and cons of Strategic Contracting, as well as the requirements of implementing such a framework yourself. The article was co-written by MinterEllison Gold Coast Partner Paul Muscat and Paul Skillen, Manager of Business Development at Sunshine Coast Council, who currently implement a Strategic Contracting system.]]>

The impact of COVID19 on cashflow across all industries has been staggering. In the construction industry, which relies so heavily on cashflow to keep the industry afloat, the legislation in place to facilitate cashflow should see a resurgence in use in the coming months. Whether you are a principal, contractor or subcontractor it is important to remind yourself of the mechanisms available and how to get the most out of the legislation when it applies to you. In this edition of Construction In Focus, we discuss the security of payment regimes in place Australia-wide to promote cashflow and how they might apply to you.]]>
